Altfrid Krusenbaum, a Wisconsin grazing consultant, will discuss his experience with managing pastures on his farm to generate profit. Cleason Horst of "Friendly Blends" soil amendments in Canandaigua, New York will talk about the depletion of soil fertility in pastures and how farmers can identify this by understanding soil lab reports.
